The Legacy System

"Hahah~! This flower boy should have really kept to his role and run his mouth off. Too bad that his brain overthought the situation, and he ended up as he did!

But, man, you surely are ruthless! You truly just destroyed a man's pride, joy, and identity in one move!

I must say that I am truly in awe of your strength, act, and ruthlessness sir, this poor young man truly admires you!"

The burly man, the two guards behind him, and the two guards behind the little Young Master who were still in shock at what had happened had their faces turn black and hideous.

In fact, they were truly angered with the burly man when he acted the way he did, but they were a bit too late and couldn't stop him.

And even the next moment that they were thinking of attacking him in rage, they were more than convinced by his words.

Considering their Young Master's character, and running mouth, then his words made complete sense, he would just never shut up.

No matter the situation he was in, and no matter who was in front of him he would never shut up, at least this happened most of the time.

Who would have ever thought that the biggest chatterbox would suddenly stop for a moment, and then suffer such a fate?

Everyone was dumbfounded right then and there, as they couldn't believe what was going on, but at the same time, they increased their awareness of a possible clash.

It was clear by the way they conducted their selves in each other's presence that the position of these guys in their respective houses wasn't low.

Especially, the position of that masked Young ex-Master who seemed to truly have a high position, and importance attached to him.

If one looked at this situation objectively, then the closest friends had turned into probable worst enemies, due to this incident.

But there was the subjective side also, which made this entire situation Eric's fault, as he was the one to play such a game, and set up the stage for this mistake.

The burly man and the two guards behind him were pretending to be calm, and look for an explanation, but inside they were having a hard time keeping it together as they did.

The situation was really complicated right now, in the next moment they might be forced to start fighting each other for real, everything depended on the two guards that were accompanying their Young Master here.

While the two organizations' leaders weren't the best of friends, their common interests clearly surpassed the drawbacks.

But could things be the same after this incident? For a moment everyone forgot about the presence of the person who made this situation possible.

Eric was just looking at the tense situation in front of him with a look of indifference and mischievousness, as these guys were truly idiots in his eyes.

They didn't seem able to think straight and remember who was the responsible guy for whatever was happening.

It was only after a few moments of waiting, and tense nerves, that finally the realization of the situation hit the two guards, as they immediately ran towards their Young Master.

In their worry and alertness, they seemed to have forgotten about the other presences and were totally focused on their Young Master.

Their priority was to check upon his injuries, so they immediately took his mask off, and his clothes to have a look at him.

The moment they took his mask off, Eric was left a bit startled and shocked by what he saw, because the person in front of him wasn't a male, but a female.

It was probably due to her undeveloped almost flat chest that made her look a bit masculine, but still, this didn't change the fact that she was a young lady and not a young man.

He wasn't the only one to have been surprised by the shocking revealing that he saw, as the burly man and his two bodyguards were the same.

They had never thought of such a possibility until now, even though they knew with whom they were dealing in the big picture.

This came as a great shock to them, as they didn't know what to think anymore. But there was more to the strange scene in front of them.

The two guards tried to pry open her clothes in order to better check upon her injuries when she suddenly woke up.

"Aaaa~!"

Her scream was truly high-pitched and was probably heard far away in the distance, as she immediately pulled back from her previous place, as she slapped the two guards on their faces.

Just what were these two guys thinking of doing with her, and her body? Didn't they understand who she was, and what position and background she had?

At that time though she was finally reminded of her mask, only to notice that it was no longer on her face.

This development had turned her truly mad, as she started looking at the duo with clear anger and fury on her eyes, as they were about to erupt like that volcano Medusa.

Something that she had so hardly kept a secret until now, had been completely crumbled to dust by her bodyguards in less than 2 minutes.

This should be some kind of amazing new record that they had just set up, as no one else should be as stupid as the two were.

As a matter of fact, when the Burly Man had attacked, her protective treasure had absorbed almost all of the attacking power, and she had fallen unconscious due to fear.

It was truly shameful for her to accept this fact, so she decided to continue with the second-best solution by taking out her anger on the two guys.

"You morons! You idiots! Just what kind of useless trash are you, to be unable to help me in this situation, and even go as far as to dissolve my identity!

Useless pieces of trash!"

The two guards felt wronged by her words, as they had done all this because they were worried for her. But their worry seemed to have been useless.

Still, they couldn't even say shit about it, as she was their boss and Young Miss. They could only endure in silence, as their Young Miss turned to look at the other people around her.

In fact, her look was more concentrated on the burly guy, and Eric, who was looking at everything happening in front of him with a pinch of indifference.

He didn't seem to place either of the big duos in his eyes, as he was looking at them like some mischievous grandpa looking at his grandkids.

  On the other hand, the burly man was looking at the scene with a truly weird, and complicated look.

Should he be happy that the person he had just thought he had completely crushed, was now safe and sound, or extremely gloomy about the future, and the Young Miss's revenge?

Not to mention that they still had a deal to totally close, as he was finally once again reminded of the money that Eric stole, and his look towards him became even fiercer.

If he could, he would probably chop Eric into many little pieces, and then make a good soup out of him.

In fact, he saw an opportunity to escape in this situation, as he instantly started screaming at Eric,

"You filthy little shit! Do you know what you have just done, and what kind of shit you have smeared upon your skin!?"

He was really angry with this kid because he was probably a genius of sorts, but due to his stupidity, he had just entered a mess where he wouldn't be able to receive even a punch.

But Eric didn't seem to care about his words in the least, he was just looking around the place, and at the poor-looking merchandise.

Those guys were just as shocked as the others with what was happening in front of them, as they couldn't make sense out of it.

Their only wish and hope they had were to escape their captivity and run away. Just run away from this terrible place.

The burly man seemed to have gotten even angrier, and wrathful, as he was completely ignored, and disregard by Eric.

That truly burned him inside, as his eyes were slowly going bloodshot, and he looked at Eric like he was a dead man, and threatened,

"Motherfuc*ker! I…"

But he wasn't able to continue speaking, because the next moment he heard Eric say in a calm voice, that reverberated through the place,

  "Everybody, this is your chance to make a run for it, or even try and kill your enemies. whatever you wish to do, rests in your hands!"

The burly man and the Young Miss didn't seem to understand what he meant when they suddenly heard tired running steps, and then some wild war cries.

Their position and standing made it difficult for them to see their merchandise right now, as they were only able to do it once they returned their heads towards them.

Once they did it though, they wished they hadn't done it as they were faced with more than 600+ people running towards them, and that wasn't all there was to it.

The numbers kept increasing with each passing moment, as more and more of them got out of the containers to make a run.

Some of them were trying to escape, some of them were coming their way, and some of them seemed to be just looking for a way to kill themselves.

These were the three ways that humans face against desperation, facing it, running away, or just giving up. Either way, the situation had just gotten out of hand!
